🌍 We just got back from West Africa with LuxDev, where we want to support local economies with their #DigitalTransformation. How? By collaborating with local universities: ➡ We train 22 PhDs and 7 PostDocs ➡ After 2 years at SnT, they return to their home universities in Senegal and Benin. This trip was truly enriching, our team had the chance to meet with ministries, visit different schools and institutes, and get to know local companies and start-ups. In the long term, the project aims to spread a research culture also in the private sector, to build private sector capacities, and to support the policy of local governments to promote higher education. This activity has been organised as part of the SnT4Dev project financed by the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and implemented in collaboration with LuxDev, the Luxembourg Development Cooperation Agency.
